Video: ZKETECH EBD-A20H first look

I recently purchased a Electronic Load to test some small power supplies. I often use little power supplies for small LED or ESP8266 projects and since I mostly buy stuff in China I often don't really know how good those power supplies are.

So I thought I would get a load bank and at least have the ability to test how they behave. I probably won't be doing any full teardowns of the power supplies (There is other people around who are A LOT better at that) but at least I can do some testing. I will also allow me to do some battery testing and other stuff I've been wanting to do.

I made a video of a first look about the ZKETECH EBD-A20H below. This version has 0-30 voltage range with 0-10 Amperage range and 4 wire measurement.

Video: Phone Chargers 101

For a while now I've been interested in several types of power adapters and power delivery. This started with LED drivers and 12v/24v power supplies for LED lighting. There will be more about that in later blog posts. For this firs time tryout talk video I'm talking about phone chargers, how they have changed over the past few years and my plans on testing them in follow up videos and blog posts!

Let me know what you think and leave a like if you liked it on youtube!

Review of the Mikrotik Routerboard wAP AC

This week Mikrotik released the Routerboard wAP AC. Internally it resembles the recently released hAP AC a lot so I bought some to take a look!
